View 11 RepliesI'm asked to create a network tool in C and a GUI API in linux platform by my company. I'm aware of the GPL & GLPL licenses , but not clear whether I can create a proprietary commercial software with the tools & libraries available in Linux: My tool will be written in C and will be using the some network library functions in the Linux and some header files .(Their license is GPL) , also the GUI i'm planning to develop is using GTK and Glade / Anjuta, (GTK is based on GLPL license) , I will be using GCC compiler for C programs,
Please let me know whether it is possible to create a closed source-commercial software using the above tools/libraries, if not possible is there any workaround is there for creating commerical tools in linux Can I make some part of my code closed and some parts open? Also please let me know which is the best GUI building programming language/IDE that can be used with C programs in linux

I tried to change the basic toolbar to cairo dock,a tutorial that i found told me to write in terminal gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.listso i write it and a window opened,i couled not find the text that told me(the tutorial i mean)so i closed the window,after that i keep taiking the same error
E: Type �sudo� is not known on line 55 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
E: The list of sources could not be read.
Go to the repository dialogue to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
now whene i got in the winehq.list the text has gone and i take this error in update manager,my software center doesn't work and my terminal whenever i type sudo commands says
E: Type �sudo� is not known on line 55 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
I get this error message: E: Malformed line 57 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)
I am pretty new to Ubuntu and dont really understand computer
Here is the sources list (??) as well
don't know much, but when I tried to update I get this error:
E: Type 'sudo' is not known on line 52 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list E: The list of sources could not be read.
There is a problem with my source list (apparently) I'm running 11.04 if that helps.When I try to use apt-get install update for example, I get: "Malformed line 59 in source list etc/apt/sources.list"The same error occurs when trying to access synaptic package manager, it tells me there is a malformed line and the list of sources cannot be read.This error prevents me from apt-getting anything, updating and i suspect it is affecting the software center too.

What happens if I update Debian Squeeze from Lenny's source.list?A step by step manual is written on Lenny, and if I change lenny to squeeze things seem to not work.When I update the squeeze from the original source.list and then change to the source.list that manual uses things are working.But if I were to start squeeze with lenny's source.list I am getting error while trying to do this:
apt-get install wget mc zip unzip bzip2 ntp ntpdate lsb-release.
I want to pick up Python3 from squeeze, meanwhile I would like to stay with lenny with all other packages. Is this possible by just modifying source.list file?

I've installed CFEngine from source (for those of you who aren't familiar with the product, check out the wiki page) on an AIX server. I had some issues setting it up but finally got it to gmake successfully.
Once I run gmake install I get a very short output (based on other source builds) and no errors. I figure something is fishy and I now I need to figure out a good way to find if it was correctly installed. I tried:
find / -name cfeng* 2> /dev/null
Is there something analogous to rpm -qa | grep cfengine?
Here is a copy of my output in case anyone needs: [url]

View 2 Replies View RelatedI understand there is a file that stores the repositories' information, but I can't find it!Is there a way I can create a list of what applications have been installed?The idea is that if I am running a backup, finding a way to save the repository list and applications installed so if I am upgrading, or fixing a borked system by re-installing Fedora, I could copy the repo list back, and run the applications list like ode:yum install <cat apps.txt?> and get all of the applications I've installed via Yum without having to remember them all?Is there anything else, outside of /home, I should look at backing up? SELinux settings?

View 2 Replies View Relatedif I open a terminal and hit [TAB] [TAB] it will display "Display all 2583 possibilities? (y or n) ". If I press y is there a way to capture the output and write it to a file? Not like it is a command so I can't just use a redirect to a file? If not I guess I could just do an ls on all locations of $PATH and capture that to a file.

I have a several year-old Apple computer that has the latest Mac operating system (OS X 10.6.2). I wonder what are the advantages (and disadvantages) of converting my operating system to Linux. Or simply using Linux side-by-side Mac I take it that I would be able to use Linux and Mac on a single computer -- is this assumption correct?
